Institutional Scholarships and Grants
A variety of scholarships are awarded to students who have excelled in fields of study, community activities, the arts, or athletic competition. Lindenwood University’s admissions counselors can advise prospective students of the full program of scholarship availability. Although Lindenwood University scholarships and grants are credited in total at the beginning of each term, they are actually earned as tuition and room and board charges are incurred. If, as a result of being “unearned,” a student’s Lindenwood scholarship or grant is reduced, the corresponding charges for tuition, room, and board will be proportionately increased. All institutional aid will be reduced in accordance with the student’s reduced scholarship or grant.
Lindenwood University undergraduate grants/scholarships are intended for and may only be used for undergraduate programs; they are not intended for and may not be used for graduate programs.
Lindenwood University offers a 50 percent scholarship to all persons age 60 and over. The University also offers partial institutional grants for employees of selected companies, municipalities, and school systems. These grants may only be applied toward courses taken for credit and do not apply to courses that are audited. Any other funding may first replace the Lindenwood University funding. It is the responsibility of the student to inform the admissions counselor of any scholarship opportunities for which the student may be eligible.
